Hi Ghulam, There are free resources on the website, but the courses rely on teacher feedback - so they do cost money. If you are interested in using our free resources, you will find them here: https://www.time4writing.com/free-writing-resources/

The program is awful. The parent report lists everything on one long page, not per assignment. And once a teacher has sent feedback you can't figure out what is the feedback for which submitted assignment, so I can never make sense of what my son's feedback is. Everything my son writes is sent back constantly, even the rough drafts are sent back multiple times meaning there's absolutely no way my son can finish the program within 8 weeks. I tried talking to my son's teacher, but that also was a waste of time as she ignored most of what I tried to tell her and she said she could get the course extended for 1 week or I could simply let the credit expire. I will not use this again, it feels discombobulated, there's no real way to talk to the "teacher" and parent's can't actually get a good feeling of how their child is doing. On top of that, for writer's like my son, who struggle to write anything at all having everything sent back to be redone is deflating and defeating.

Hi Jennifer, We are so sorry to hear that you did not have a good experience with the course. As an online course, it is not for everyone, but most families like the personalized feedback that is provided. The student report that is printable from the parent page is really intended more as a summary of what the student has done, but each of the actual assignments has a place to view teacher feedback (which is usually in a different color so that it is easier to differentiate between the student's work and the teacher's feedback). Student submissions can be accessed from within the student login, and can be copied into a word document for easy printing if you want to save some of his work. Revisions are where the real learning takes place, and our teachers aim to get the most out of their students while trying to be constructive and motivating. Giving a final grade on a first attempt (even on the rough drafts) does not give a student the opportunity to reach their true writing potential.

Trying to cancel time4 writing. It doesn't actually teach the kid anything. I would not recommend this for kids who already have a hard time thinking how to write. This is for kids who are able to write and want to write better. Yes my child started where the assessment suggested. Again it was horrible. I am not interested in contacting your company for a second time. The first time was bad enough.

Tolley, we appreciate every kind of feedback because it helps us understand where we can do better to improve our courses. Did your student make use of the assessment testing prior to beginning the course? Sometimes, the problem can be that a student is not assigned to the proper course for their learning needs, if the assessment wasn't completed. We want to work with you for a satisfactory conclusion to your experience with the program and having more information about your course enrollment will help us provide that. Please contact us with follow-up information regarding your student and our hope is to resolve your issue as soon as possible.
